Celebrate Life....

4/30/2015

There are times when it seems as though nothing in our lives are going as planned. This makes us feel down-trodden and places us in a place where darkness seems to take over. But why should we feel that way when we have hope, hope should help to catapult us from any dark and distressful place to a higher elevation and dream realization. We take for granted the reality that we have the greatest thing, LIFE. So many have gone on and would love to be here to experience life again. We have life and regardless of our situations, dire or not, we have another opportunity to try again. Each day we open our eyes, is a day to give thanks and it's a day to go at it again.

If you are breathing, then you have more that is right with you than what is wrong with you. Put positive thoughts into motion. Eliminate the negative thought process. Enjoy your life, you only get to live it once. Live in this moment, basked in the sunset and allow its magnificent rays to illuminate your skin with a golden glow.

Meditation....

4/29/2015

Meditation is about being yourself and knowing who that is. It is about getting out of your own way. Many of us restrict ourselves when it comes to meditation because of all the distractions around us. We become a slave in our minds to everything we are trying to keep up with mentally. We end up losing touch with our ability to be mindful. We pour so much into our minds each day, but we end up lacking the wisdom we need.

We should check ourselves often to see where we are at the current moment. Is our mind on the task at hand or are we physically there but mentally elsewhere? We need to do this for ourselves so that we can come back to a place of clarity. Why miss out on life by trying to juggle everything at once on our minds when we don't have to? Free up some space in your mind to focus on the here and now. Today is what you have.

Being Mindful....

4/28/2015

Mindfulness is about being aware of what is going on in the present moment. When you are present in each moment you are able to listen to yourself. It is important for us to be aware of what is occurring in our lives in the current moment. Our lives and minds are often bombarded with a little bit of everything that we end up missing the important chapters in our lives. We end up missing important parts of our children and loved ones lives. When we try to focus on everything we end up not focusing on anything. If we are writing we should focus on writing and not on what is going on outside or in the news.

We often hear the term multi-tasking, but how efficient can you be when you are thinking about completing your task at hand and whatever is going on at home and elsewhere. We should chose to focus on what we are currently working on at hand. Giving it your full attention, will guarantee a more dynamic and brilliant effort.

Our Thoughts.....

4/27/2015

It is important for us to be present in every moment of our lives. Many of us tend to drift off, away from our current lives and drift into the past or even a future which has yet to be formulated. When we drift off we miss out on important parts of our lives. What causes us to drift off? We drift off when we have a lot of things occurring in our lives. While we are busy in our minds trying to think about everything but the present moment, we end up neglecting the present and lose out.

We must shift the way we think. We must set our minds on what is currently going on around us. A missed moment in our lives, is a moment we will never get back. Control your thoughts; as they drift off catch them and gently guide them back to the current moment. You cannot experience life as you should when you are busy drifting away.

The Just and The Unjust.....

4/26/2015

There is a saying that "God causes the rain to fall on the just and the unjust". This is true, because we know that the same calamities that nature or life sends to me it also sends to you. The moral of this saying is that we all sin and fall short of God's Glory. None of us are perfect, we all fall short on a daily basis but that does not mean that we should not strive to be better, it does mean we should live for God and seek His forgiveness on a daily basis. If we chose to sit back in sin day in and day out with an attitude that God will plague us all regardless, we are just being ignorant. At the end of this life, each and everyone of us will have to give an account for our sins. We cannot tell God that we did not repent because He plagued us all regardless if we were saved or not.

God calls each of us, He has a door open for us to enter, to ask for forgiveness and to seek His face. Don't fall into the trap that the rain is going to fall on all of us regardless. Work on being better than who you were yesterday. Deepen your relationship with God so that you can hear Him when He directs you within your purpose.

Have a blessed Sunday.

Self Control.....

4/25/2015

It is important to practice self control in our lives. It is never good to go overboard with anything, because as they say, too much of anything is never good. Self control allows us to resist things which may serve no good in our lives. We are a blessed generation, but we still go after so much more, often more than we can handle. If we take the time to evaluate all that we have in our lives, we would be astonished at what we have accomplished and accumulated throughout our lives. Many of us are so blessed that we can afford to share our blessings. Take a look at your lives today and decide if you are practicing self control. Look at your blessings, count them and then evaluate whether or not you are doing all you can to share your blessings.

Make contentment an important part of your life. Having a content spirit will help you maintain self control in your life. If you are blessed with more than enough and yet you find yourself still looking for more, make the decision to pass on the over abundance of blessings to those less fortunate. If you do this you will never want for anything, because God will cause your basket of blessings to be filled always.

Be blessed.

Remove the Distractions....

4/24/2015

Distractions come in many forms and sizes. They are there to steer you away from fulfilling your true purpose in this life. Distractions will always be around you until you decide when its time to rid your life completely of it. Distractions can start out in a simple conversation that turns into unfruitful and unflattering chatter about others. These type of chatters will only break you down piece by piece when you engage in them. Distractions is the television or internet that keeps you from progressing spiritually and filling up on spiritual food.

Avoid and remove distractions by investing your free time in the bible. You can also chose to replace distractions by changing your surroundings. Seek out conversations aimed at inspiring and motivating you to grow spiritually and to gain insights from the Word of God. Be wise about what goes into your mind, free yourself and your mind of toxic behavior and distractions.

Have a focused filled day.

Be Dependable.....

4/23/2015

Never stray away from your responsibilities and become undependable. There are times when our lives are far from where we want it to be and we become despondent to a point where we neglect other things in our lives that matter. Never allow anything to consume your life so much that everything else seems like a non-issue. We are in control of our lives and therefore we can chose how we will react to any issues in our lives. Fight the urge to neglect things that are of importance. Fight to remain the good and dependable person you know you are.

Don't allow tough times to make you tough to a point that you don't care. Be humble, be consistent, be kind and know that you are here for a purpose. Remain reliable because there is someone who is depending on you. Remember your purpose.

Don't Settle for less Than you Deserve.....

4/22/2015

Never underestimate yourself and what you are capable of. You have it within you to be the best of the best, regardless of what anyone may say. You know you are capable of greatness and that is the reason you refuse to settle or be placed into a box. You must find out what you are good at, what your passions are and pursue them with fire under your wings.

You are smart witted and intelligent and you can accomplish so much more than what has been given to you. Don't chose to settle simply because things are slow to materialize, chose instead to build your dreams to the best of your ability.

You are a light that can never be dimmed by anyone but God...remember that and live with that knowledge in your mind.

I believe knowledge is something we gain through our life
experiences. These experiences may seem similar to what others may go
through, but each one of us experiences are unique to us; they are tailored
specifically for us based on our strength. Regardless of the differences, I
truly believe that we can help each other with the difficulties we face by
sharing what or how we were able to overcome. I, myself have been through a
variety of difficult times and I will utilize this platform to share such
moments and how I was able to pull myself
through.

I choose to use this platform to focus on women and the wide variety of issues and
triumphs in our lives. This site is to provide healing, enlightenment,
motivation, encouragement and all that envelopes the desire to succeed
regardless of what we may face.
